Abstract: The present study was carried out with the objective of identifying places where suicide attempts or completed suicides occur most frequently in the city of Curitiba and drawing a parallel with geographical, temporal, demographic, and financial particularities. The importance of conducting the study lies in the analysis of statistical data generated in sysbm, the system responsible for managing all incident responses of the Military Fire Department of Paraná. The analysis of these data can indicate locations where prevention efforts are most necessary, vulnerable groups, as well as the confrontation of paradigms and myths about suicide. An in-depth analysis of these statistics can guide CBMPR in creating doctrines and policies for responding to this type of incident, since it is their duty as defined by the Federal and State constitutions, among other legislations, and generate consistent data so that other agencies may benefit from this work for the purpose of suicide prevention, a problem that has proven to be a worldwide public health issue. The research was conducted following a methodology that involved: a) data collection within sysbm over a period of 60 months ending on December 5, 2023; b) statistical analysis of the data; c) selection of bibliography that provides theoretical support to the study; d) analysis with cross-referencing of statistics and the aforementioned particularities; e) conclusions reached.
